PETG vs PLA - What is stronger?
In this video, I am doing a strength comparison of PETG vs PLA to see how flexible both materials are and when they break. They have to perform 4 tests:
- Breaking at room temperature
- Boiling water and deformation test
- Freezing in the fridge
- Baking in the oven
By far this is not a scientific test but it still shows the major differences between both materials. Have fun watching!
Material: AmazonBasics PETG, see links below
Print settings: Temp 230-235° Nozzle, 75-80° Bed, Retract 2mm, Speed 60mm/s, Infill 100%
